Legal hand-me-down (7)

I believe the answer is:

bequest

(Other definitions for bequest that I've seen before include "Gift by will of personal property" , "Something left in a will (7)" , "Something gifted in a will" , "One left in will" , "Gift left in will" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
